Verbatim

Ken Martin, state Democratic chair: “Rachel Bohman’s experience as a former assistant county attorney and in local government will help her rise above partisan divisions in Washington and deliver for her district on lowering costs, improving public safety, and making health care more affordable.By contrast, Brad Finstad has shown that he is more interested in partisan politics than delivering for his district. Since getting to Congress, Brad Finstad has voted to shut down the government and signed onto a bill that would ban abortion nationwide, including in Minnesota.”
